<p>PENETRATING TOPICAL PHARMACEUTICAL COMPOSITIONS CONTAINING 9-(2-HYDROXYETHOXYMETHYL) GUANINE A group of hydrophilic substituted purine antivirals, especially 9-(2-hydroxyethoxymethyl) guanine, can be effectively delivered across skin by incorporating the selected antiviral into a binary, penetration-enhancing vehicle containing (1) a C3-C4 diol, diol ester or diol ether, and (2) a cell-envelope disordering compound. These compositions provide surprising enhancement of delivery for the antivirals when compared to existing vehicles or systems, and provide a method of treating viral infections. They are especially effective as antiherpetics.</p> |
